Are you overwhelmed as you try to differentiate your daily math instruction based on “one size fits all” math assessments or exit slips? Don't be! These differentiated 4th Grade assessments or practice sheets for creating and reading line plots {4.MD.4} can help you differentiate with more ease! Students represent and interpret data they create by measuring lines in inches, milllimeters, and reading clocks to calculate the elapsed time. Students' line plot scale includes fractions on a line plot!

Included are three versions of each assessment for three differentiated levels of mastery to ensure you have what you need for pre-assessment, independent practice, post assessment, review, and end of year test prep that meets a range of student needs. With the “building blocks,” “goals,” and “stretching beyond” leveled assessment options, you can collect invaluable data to drive your math instruction and give all your learners an opportunity to show true growth in their understanding of math concepts.

MORE ABOUT MY LEVELED ASSESSMENTS

What do the levels mean?

BUILDING BLOCKS (••): pre-requisite skills and understandings that students need to have in order to meet grade-level expectations (a.k.a. GOALS •••).

GOALS (•••): the “on grade level” expectations based directly on the 4th grade standards.

STRETCHING BEYOND (••••): “above grade level” expectations. The Stretching Beyond level provides you with assessment and independent practice options to stretch and challenge students who easily meet grade-level expectations.

Why should you level your math assessments?

With leveled math assessments, you can challenge your gifted students and plan for intervention with your growing learners. You have everything you need here for line plot pre-assessments, post assessments, quizzes, tests, homework, review, worksheets for independent practice, and end of year testing preparation. These assessments are perfect for supporting a growth mindset classroom climate.

I whole-heartedly believe in the ability of these 4th grade line plot assessments to help teachers identify students’ strengths and weaknesses in math, to diagnose areas to target, and to help teachers plan for differentiated math instruction (whether you use a math workshop model, small group teaching, have to incorporate a math textbook, or plan differentiated stations for your students).
